There's a certain kind of 'genre' painting, usually featuring subjects like this, that I generally steer well clear of. They're often rendered in oil or acrylic. But you've redeemed it for me by using watercolour. The medium restores innocence to a theme that is often anything but....

You have a lovely gallery. This one is especially well done. Really nice lighting and a light touch. It's beautiful in its composition as well.

copied from the L.Painter mag a couple of years ago. I loved the way the light hits the face and brings out the structure of the body. Also I love the delicious colours of Indigo that can bring out the many darks.
